R2BEES SIGN DEAL WITH UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP

Ghanaian music duo, R2Bees have inked a new deal with Universal Music Group.

One half of the group, Pae Dae shared the news on micro blogging site, Twitter writing that the deal means their new album has to “be pushed back a few weeks.”

The group released ‘We Dey Vibe‘ off the upcoming album ‘SITE 15‘ in July, promising to release the project in August 2018.

“They [Universal] have made us a very good offer which we think we should take,” explains Ike Otoo Arhin, Manager for the group. ”This is our 10 years anniversary and the album release should be huge. If we release it independently, it would not go as far as we want it. Ghana music has to go further.”

The terms of the deal are however unavailable at the time of writing this report.

The duo become the third Ghanaian act to be signed by the world’s biggest music company after Cina Soul and Stonebwoy.
